"World Champion 1964" 
Artist:  Simon Ward
Driver:  John Surtees
Dimensions: 18.5" x 21.5"

This print features driver John Surtees in the Ferrari TIPO 158 at the Italian Grand Prix.  Surtees was world champion in 1964, and is the only racer to have won Grand Prix world championships in both cars and motorcycles.  This limited edition print features artist's remarques of John Surtees' face and helmet,  Surtees in the car,  and the flag man.  The print and color quality are superb.  The prints are signed by John Surtees and Simon Ward.


This Edition is Now Sold Out

In a car, as on a bike, Surtees was a fearless, tough but fair competitor, as quick as the best without being wild. But where most of his rivals contented themselves with riding or driving, he had a deep interest in the workings of his machines. Some said he should have simply concentrated solely on racing, itself difficult enough, but he liked to tinker and probe in an unceasing quest for technical perfection.

Surtees has few regrets, however. Such an approach worked perfectly well as his exploits on motorcycles passed into legend and he took MV Agusta to countless victories and the World Championships in 1956 (500cc class), 1958, '59 and '60 (350 and 500). In that final year he also began the car racing career that would take him to the unique double by the age of 30.
